It may be a thermostat or it may be the temperature sensor. In the former case, running cool is not optimum but is unlikely to ruin your engine either. If it is the latter, then your engine may actually be at normal temperature. I'd have it checked but YMMV.

Hi, I have the 150 HP engine and the water temperature rarely exceeds

70°C. Oil Temperature is also something like that.

I would not worry. It has been like that from the beginning. IMO only a sign of a cooling system with margins.

Regards
